THE OTHER F-WORD
MK Schiller
Book two in The Other Words series
Damien Wolfe is ferociously sexy. Emmie Mason is fastidiously stubborn. When fate brings them together, they are both challenged by the other F-word…forever.
Fashionable forty-four-year-old, Emmie Mason is content with her fastidious life. She has everything she needs in her loving family and friends. Her eldest daughter, Marley, has married the man of her dreams, and she has a new grandchild. What more could a woman ask for?
She isn’t prepared for fate to slap her in the face in the form of a bridal bouquet. Or worse, to run into the fantasy-inducing, eye-catching, panty-dropping, swoon-worthy man she’s been thinking about for over a year, even though they only danced together once.
As it turns out, thirty-year-old real estate mogul Damien Wolfe has been thinking about her too. Damien’s flirty, funny and forthright personality challenges Emmie and tilts her world. But it’s his kind soul and compassionate demeanour that really frighten her.
He’s easy to fall for, but how could she ever recover if she risked her heart to him? Can they both overcome their fears and commit to that other F-word…Forever?
Dedication
Dear fellow romance lover, thank you for picking up my book. I hope you enjoy Damien and Emmie’s story as much as I enjoyed writing it. There are many people whose support made this work possible. Thank you to Totally Bound for believing in my work and my diligent editor, Rebecca Douglas for her mad skills. Thank you to my loving family, Pat, Nicole, Justin, Mom and Dad for all their support and living with all the sacrifices of having an absentee member while I was focused on the spell of Damien Wolfe. Thank you to my beta readers for your feedback and suggestions. Thank you to the amazing artists whose music inspired me while writing this tale (no need to be specific—all titles are listed throughout the book). Thank you to all the readers who continue to support Indie authors like myself, and vesting your valuable time on our work. Keep reading and never stop looking for your happily ever after!
